It is amazing at what can be created

with a little bit of this...................

a whole lot of this...................

not very much of this................

and inspiration with just a few stitches on this....................

and it all comes to this!

 I started this back in May.............I had been wanting to stitch this for the longest time..........

and then last year around Christmas time, this old chair was sitting in the back of a pickup, about to be tossed and destroyed at the dump. The man who was dumping it, graciously handed it to me upon my aksing.

When I saw the blank canvas on the back of the chair..........the chair just seemed to call out to me............and I knew, I had finally found the right spot for the cross stitched piece. I just finished sanding and staining the chair last week. Now I will begin fitting the cross stitched piece to the back of this chair. I need to also cover the seat.

I will show how it all comes together in my next post.

How about you?

Have you ever seen something and knew immediately that you had to do something with it?

I would love to hear!
